Week 31

 We've tried to make the most of the beautiful sunny weather today as best as we can with nasty colds all round.  We had some things to pick up this morning, and on our way home we thought we might stop off at the park so Dylan could have a ride of his trike. Just as we were getting close to the park I peeped over my shoulder to see him fast asleep. So the park was off! He was so sleepy as we got in the door that he didn't even make it to lunch.  Nearly 3 hours later he emerged bright eyed, hungry and ready for that trip to the park! 

 He loved doing laps of the walking track around the park. Lucky his little trike has a parent push handle cos he certainly got distracted by the woofy dogs, the kids on bikes and scooters, the joggers, the soccer players, and the balls being kicked left, right and centre.

We all had a great time at the park, and Dylan just didn't want to stop or get off his trike. Eventually we decided that the afternoon chill was setting in and it was definitely time to head off. We didn't head straight home though, we figured it was time for a treat and popped in for deliciously decadent hot chocolates from the Oliver Brown Belgian Chocolate Cafe just up the road. Bliss!

Week 34 Unfortunately things fell apart during the week.  I was hoping that we were all on the mend but it quickly became apparent that we weren't, and we went downhill quickly.  There's been more whinging and moaning and sleepless nights and day naps and the tissues... boxes and boxes of tissues.  It's just no fun.  When the sleepless nights turn into cranky days, you just lose your shit sometimes. You yell. You yell at anyone who's there. You say things I'm sure you wouldn't normally say if you were well.  And decisions, oh my god, why is it so friggin hard to make a decision??? Like what should we have for dinner? Or should I put that other load of washing on or will it piss down with rain?? This week I've really felt quite isolated.  On my own little sick island where nobody wants to go.  Some days you just wish you had that magic fairy that would come and get your shit done for you.  I've been so lethargic this week that makes it seem everything

Overall not a bad week here. We've had a few outings, been on some walks and a 4th birthday party.  Its been a mostly wet weekend, and the perfect opportunity for cuddles on the lounge with my boys, and a little me time.  I've got the best excuse for some quiet days at home.  Hubby bought me (or was instructed to buy me) the box set of the Offspring TV show on DVD.  I love it! I've gone back to the beginning to watch the early years and see the episodes I missed out on, and to refresh my memory on the ones I saw.  So looking forward to the new season starting in a few weeks! Tristan has been pretty good this past week.  Napping has been reasonable and night times are ok.  He had a few feeding strikes, but I knew he wouldn't starve himself, so I haven't been too worried.  This past week he hit 12 weeks old and I'm noticing his size 000 clothes getting a bit tighter.  I'm sure by this age Dylan was barely into 000!  Tristan has been smiling so much, and I

Week 44 As Dylan's transition from babbling to talking gets better, I guess I also see the downside.  The demanding toddler can now tell me what he wants and I can't just pretend I don't know or can't give it to him.  Today's lunch didn't go down so well.  Not usually a fan of ham, and a lover of avocado, Dylan picked out the ham strips and gobbled them up only to leave the avo untouched.  Then came the "more ham" request, and the "more narny" (banana), and the "more cheese"!  I guess there are worse things he could be eating.  When he did finally go back to eating more of the sandwich there was facial expressions galore!!
